<h1>The multiView example</h1>

<center>
  <img src="../images/multiView.jpg" width="330" height="228" alt="multiView"/>
</center>

<p>
 A multi-view application, with constrained camera displacements.
</p>
<p>
 Four viewers are created, each displaying the same scene. The camera displacements are constrained
 for three of the viewers to create the classical top, front, side views. The last viewer is a
 classical 3D viewer.
</p>
<p>
 Note that the four viewers share the same OpenGL context.
